Compared with traditional mechanical cutting, optical fiber laser cutting technology has higher cutting accuracy, lower roughness, higher material utilization and production efficiency. Especially in the field of fine cutting, laser cutting has traditional cutting. However, in some special cases, the power and effect of the fiber laser cutting machine are significantly reduced. What is the cause? Now let’s analyze the factors that affect the effect of the fiber laser cutting machine!
1. The environment and conditions at the production site have a great impact on the power of the optical fiber laser cutting machine. For example, there is a lot of dust and smoke at the production site, and some users place paint spraying near the optical fiber laser cutting machine, which will affect the cutting quality and cutting capacity of the optical fiber laser cutting machine.
2. The cutting head nozzle of the laser cutting machine is also very important. The cutting head nozzle was originally installed at the front end of the processing head, which helps to control the auxiliary gas and protect the focusing lens. During the cutting process, it keeps a stable distance between the processing workpiece and the nozzle to prevent splashes from rebounding during cutting. In the actual use process, when the nozzle and the laser output beam have different axes, in order to ensure the effective cutting and avoid problems such as too wide cutting seam, nozzle damage, cutting section melting, etc., the center of the nozzle hole and the laser beam need to be coaxial adjusted.
3. At the same time, the adjustment of the effect balance point should also be in place. We usually need to adjust the best effect balance point when cutting specific products. Sometimes, if the control is improper, the cutting accuracy and quality may vary greatly.
4. There will also be some problems with the laser itself. The first is the stability of the optical path, because the laser is strictly a waste product. Like our car engines, you will become worse and worse if you do not know how to maintain them. The optical fiber laser cutter needs to regularly maintain the external optical path of the laser generator. In fact, after the laser of the laser cutting machine works for a period of time, it is inevitable that the power will drop. When the power drops to affect the production, the laser and the external optical path should be maintained. When the maintenance is completed, the cutting capacity will return to the factory level.
In fact, for laser cutting machine equipment, no matter how good the laser equipment is, there will be attenuation and aging phenomenon. No matter whether it is a good or bad product, it has certain defects. Therefore, pay more attention to maintenance when using the fiber laser cutting machine, and fully understand the reasons for the attenuation of the fiber laser cutting machine. These are some factors that affect the effect of the optical fiber laser cutting machine, and I hope they can help you!
